The land of the Free and Other Poems This collection of poetry, Oyola’s second, contains a number of his best patriotic poems. The rest is a medley of poems composed in the last five to ten years. They deal with the most common universal themes: love, life, death, family, eternal, and God. Some have been inspired by ancient myths, such as Odysseus, Poseidon, Proteus, the Golden Age, and others.
